Carman was behind Jordan in the offseason because Jordan was the incumbent starter and Carman was the newly-drafted rookie.
If the Bengals didn't feel at least somewhat confident in Carman, they would have likely kept Jordan.

I don't see Carman being behind Smith at all.
In fact, I think Smith is the low man on the totem pole.
Smith was active all of two games last year, starting only the final game vs CLE where the Bengals put in backups.
He only had 50 snaps the regular season and only 12 in the postseason.

We've already heard from coaches before why Adeniji was getting starter reps over Carman.
It was due to consistency.
I'm not sure what attitude problems you've seen/heard, but I haven't seen any reports of that.

Incorrect on Smith.  He was poised to take over for Carman before an injury derailed his season.  I don't have the article, but that happened.  And they were both rookies, and Smith was drafted behind Carman.

I don't know that it was attitude, but it was something in his approach that he chose to be out of shape and perhaps believe the job was his from the word go.
